In another thread Mississippi asked about reasonably priced spotting scope recommendations for 600 yards.
That got me thinking, you can get a good 8" catadioptric used scope for $500-800, with a stand. Magnification is anything from 20X to over 100, but more than that the tripods are usually more stout and the significantly larger collection area would seem to help.
But, it's clearly it's not a popular option, just wondering why?
Anyone know?
